Just like rocks become sand, these will erode into microplastics

It doesn’t check out to me that this is an overwhelming opinion. People definitely like remote and hybrid work but the tradeoffs vs being in person at least some of the time are well known to the point of being obvious. Partially-remote teams inherently have higher communication bandwidth between the in-office cadre versus the remote teammates, and all-remote teams specifically plan for team retreats and hangouts to build camaraderie, emotional connection, and understanding.
The Meta studies are one of those “you have to find numbers for the thing that is obviously true” situations.
It’d be really surprising to me to hear any kind of experienced developer contest this, even if their personal preference is to knowingly make that trade in favor of the flexibility being remote gives.
I’m curious if others agree or disagree here, given the author presented the exact opposite of my stance so frankly.

Crossing orders are considered liquidity taking rather than providing since they're interacting with another market maker's resting (providing) orders.
Your interface with code is your eyes, so it can matter a lot how it appears. We read code more than we write, so writing for legibility is important. People talk about line noise. And we use syntax highlighters and monospaced fonts. All of this is for appearances.
Not accusing parent comment of this, but there’s a flawed attitude that consumers can and will do full research before making a buying decision, and that the “free market” will sort itself out that way.
That expectation is unreasonable because forcing the individual citizen to undertake to avoid dangerous products both doesn’t work (because people don’t do that level of research for everything) and reduces individual freedom (because the requirement for work is being foisted onto the person).
I’m not really sure of the validity of this stove essay because it’s a wall of statistics, and I’m not arguing that all product regulations are good, but regulations do have a really important role in fostering a healthy and free society.
Too often those who benefit from the status quo masquerade under a pretense of helplessness while using their position to place a toe on the scales.
I’m curious though, are you in the category of benefiting landowner? Or coming to their defense in the name of something else?
This is what I like about obsidian. Ultimately nobody has a consistent set of capabilities they want because the whole space is pretty underdefined (exactly as the article is saying). But we still want something. So Obsidian is a kind of bring-your-own collection of features, and the mobile app works good enough too. It’s kinda like vim or emacs where people customize it however they want.
I reckon as the space evolves more clarity will appear and more opinionated schemes will become popular.
Personal → Autogeny (i’m imagining “talking points”, key recurring personal concepts), book of days (daily notes, journal). Documents and people, self explanatory. ”Thoughts” i’m unsure of but probably misc grab bag things that arent profound or important enough for autogeny.
“Trove” is a nice name for the random collection of interesting tidbits and stuff I also tend to collect in my vault
Half joking but the shift from understanding szr as an intrinsic psychological condition versus being causally related to parasites remind me hilariously of the midichlorians reveal in star wars.
It'll be interesting to see if the people who've been lauding musk for his supposedly pro free speech attitudes will reckon with what's been happening in actuality, or if they'll just accept this as "freedom for me but not for thee".
How do I set up email feeds, especially paid substack feeds?
Looks like they took down other accounts in violation of the new policy:
Though even in academics, you have to write the paper yourself after doing the fun bits.
